[imp] Problem with search results in HEAD code

There's been some work/debate on the IMP HEAD search code recently, which I
hoped would fix these problems, so I was waiting on the changes.  But the
problem is still there, so here's the report.  

Happens with Horde/IMP HEAD CVS checkouts, as of today or any others I've
used in the last several weeks.

When I do a search in IMP, the results are returned fine.  I can read 
each individual result fine from the mailbox view.  In fact all functions
I've used in the mailbox view work fine.

But if I am viewing one of the returned messages, and select "delete" from 
the message view, I am returned to the search results with an error stating
"There was an error viewing the requested message." and the message was
not marked as deleted.  (I have it set so that when I delete a message in
the message view, it moves on to the next message).

to a brand, platform, product line, or programming language. It's relatively
harmless among the rank and file, but when management is afflicted the damage
can be measured in dollars. It's also contagious -- someone with sufficient
political clout can infect an entire organization."
